Thanks to Patalrob, my car is cleaner then it has ever been during my ownership.

I hope the pics show the quality of his work.

Now I need to get together with Tony and his spectacular skills to get some really good shots.

Yes he did 8)

The pics really don't do it justice, I need more time, a tripod and a lot more practice with my camera to get decent night shots.

Dang Steve that is shiny! I'm liking those pictures too :)

That Sony DSC you have is a nice all around camera. Once you get the tripod lower your ISO sensitivity and let that "shutter" hang open. It will reduce noise although I'll say those are quite good for ISO800.

that it shiny. it's like a new dime (idk, they're brighter....). lol, you should get rid of those springs and put some buck into it and bag it. then we could call it the dime bag......

Yeah, I would have thought you'd have been the first.

Trust me, if I could afford bags and boost I'd have it.

You never know what could happen in the future 8)

I believe the final coat was Mothers, I want to try that new Ice clear wax on it and see how that works.

That or I'll hit it again with Meguires just to give it a little extra protection.

That looks like hydraulics and it's going in the opposite direction of where I want mine to sit. 8)

Not that my car will ever look like this but this is the stance that I'd like to be able to have when parked.
